Abstract
This article outlines the creation of a dance/movement therapy (DMT) group for Hispanic immigrant women, its rationale, and proposed components. Since immigration is becoming of central interest in the United States and the Hispanic immigrant population is growing rapidly, the needs of this population must be acknowledged, and therapeutic models must be created to support them. Several dance/movement therapists who have explored issues of diversity cite the importance of recognizing and honoring both difference as well as universality. This proposed short-term group for Hispanic immigrant mothers in a school setting includes DMT principles and recognizes the specific needs, clinical issues, and values of this population.
